Wim Strauss is a "granting caster" - a support mage who can increase the strength of his allies through the power of his spells. It's a useful talent, but since it can't be used directly in battle, it gets zero respect from the other members of his party. As far as they're concerned, support magic is dead weight. It isn't long before they toss him out on his ear, leaving Wim to wonder if his career as an adventurer is over. Luckily for Wim, he has one big chance: His childhood friend Heidemarie is able to get him an audition with her elite A-rank party, Nachtlibelle. The two of them know his magic is good for more than just menial backup, but now he'll have to prove it. It's time to show the world that support mages can do more than just stand on the back lines!

It give more depth to a classic trope

It follows the classic trope of: kicked out of the hero’s party, the MC is secretly overpowered and suffers from low self-esteem. All the usual clichés are there, but the story ends up being much deeper than its initial premise suggests — even the MC’s lack of confidence is explored in a more meaningful way than you’d expect. After reading 45 chapters, objectively speaking, it’s good — especially in the early chapters, where the art is at its absolute peak. The quality drops a bit over time, but it still remains s...

Peak

This was really good the mc is borderline going insane and they do a really good job of showing his inner turmoil and all that. The fight scenes are sick and the art is good, definitely try this out. Make sure you find a good site to read it the most i’ve seen it translated was up to chapter 44 but there are still more untranslated ones.

This story really knows how to subvert expectations. It makes amazing use of tropes while leaving small bread crumbs of what the story is actually about and is all around very well planned out. Whats better is that this is a strong character done right. Our mc uses his power in a nuanced and unique way that sets him apart from other "granters" as this story calls it, and it makes sense why it would be really powerful. A really solid read so far and is worth your time of day.
